Detailed Solution

For heterogeneous chemical equilibrium,

CaCO3(s)ΔCaO(s)+CO2(g)

On the basis of the stoichiometric equation, we can write,

KC=[CaO(s)]CO2(g)CaCO3(s)

 Since, CaCO3(s) and [CaO(s)] are both constant, therefore modified equilibrium constant for the thermal decomposition of calcium carbonate will be

KC=CO2(g) or Kp=pCO2
